title: Frequency and correlates of childhood sexual and physical abuse histories in adult female borderline inpatients.
abstract: Suspected complex partial seizure disorder, eating disorders, and drug abuse disorders were overrepresented among the 40% (N = 16) of female borderline inpatients who reported a history of sexual abuse. Early family disruption, more frequent hospital admissions, and concomitant antisocial personality disorder were overrepresented among those who reported past physical abuse.
